 Tips and tricks
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-In my package layout, mplayer and mplayer-gui can be installed at the same
-time, because they contain differently named binaries and there is no
-conflict. The trick is to build MPlayer once with --enable-gui, rename the
-resulting binary to "gmplayer" and then build it again, without GUI, but
-keeping the rest of ./configure options the same.

-To provide man pages for all MPlayer suite binaries (mplayer, gmplayer,
-mencoder), you can use man-links instead of regular symbolic links.

-  The <emphasis role="bold">main window</emphasis> and/or the
-  <emphasis role="bold">playbar</emphasis> is where you can control
-  <application>MPlayer</application>. The background of the window is an image.
-  Various items can (and must) be placed in the window:
-  <emphasis>buttons</emphasis>, <emphasis>potmeters</emphasis> (sliders) and
-  <emphasis>labels</emphasis>.
-  For every item, you must specify its position and size.
-  </para>
-
-  <para>
-  A <emphasis role="bold">button</emphasis> has three states (pressed, released,
-  disabled), thus its image must be divided into three parts vertically. See the
-  <link linkend="skin-button">button</link> item for details.
-  </para>
-
-  <para>
-  A <emphasis role="bold">potmeter</emphasis> (mainly used for the seek bar and
-  volume/balance control) can have any number of phases by dividing its image
-  into different parts below each other. See
-  <link linkend="skin-hpotmeter">hpotmeter</link> and
-  <link linkend="skin-potmeter">potmeter</link> for details.
-  </para>
-
-  <para>
-  <emphasis role="bold">Labels</emphasis> are a bit special: The characters
-  needed to draw them are taken from an image file, and the characters in the
-  image are described by a
-  <link linkend="skin-fonts">font description file</link>.
-  The latter is a plain text file which specifies the x,y position and size of
-  each character in the image (the image file and its font description file
-  form a font <emphasis>together</emphasis>).
-  See <link linkend="skin-dlabel">dlabel</link>
-  and <link linkend="skin-slabel">slabel</link> for details.

-  All images can have full transparency as described in the section about
-  <link linkend="skin-overview-formats">image formats</link>. If the X server
-  doesn't support the XShape extension, the parts marked transparent will be
-  black. If you'd like to use this feature, the width of the main window's
-  background image must be dividable by 8.

-  The <emphasis role="bold">subwindow</emphasis> is where the movie appears. It

-  <para>
-  The <emphasis role="bold">skin menu</emphasis> is just a way to control
-  <application>MPlayer</application> by means of menu entries. Two images
-  are required for the menu: one of them is the base image that shows the
-  menu in its normal state, the other one is used to display the selected
-  entries. When you pop up the menu, the first image is shown. If you move
-  the mouse over the menu entries, the currently selected entry is copied
-  from the second image over the menu entry below the mouse pointer
-  (the second image is never shown as a whole).
-  </para>
-  <para>
-  A menu entry is defined by its position and size in the image (see the
-  section about the <link linkend="skin-file-menu">skin menu</link> for

-There is an important thing not mentioned yet: For buttons, potmeters and
-menu entries to work, <application>MPlayer</application> must know what to
-do if they are clicked. This is done by <link linkend="skin-gui">messages</link>
-(events). For these items you must define the messages to be generated when
-they are clicked.

-In the main window and in the playbar (see below) you can use images with
-`transparency': Regions filled with the color #FF00FF (magenta) are fully
-transparent when viewed by <application>MPlayer</application>. This means
-that you can even have shaped windows if your X server has the XShape extension.
